Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a A- for the Patriots.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Joe Milton III at slot 136, a reach of 63 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The whole projection now runs through J.J. McCarthy; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The McClellan pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In the 25th pick they get a long-term answer under center, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick52 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
No drama and no debate, Xavier Worthy went about where he belonged in slot 52. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58 Rnd2 Blake Fisher
A reach on Blake Fisher in No. 58; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Fair-plus on Cooper Beebe, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter slipping to the 114th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Davis at pick 129 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Josh Newton slid further than he should have, and the 134th overall pick is lovely value for the cornerback. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick136 Rnd4 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Nice patience on Trevor Keegan, who had no business lasting to No. 179. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Steal is underselling it; Johnny Dixon at slot 219 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Taking Jase McClellan in pick 231 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
